Demographic table for study subjects.

Subject	Location of Intervention	Official Diagnosis	Motor Skills	Interventionist Notes
1	ATP	N/A	Limited fine and gross motor movements; no trunk movement and support	Responds to sensory stimuli and follows by visual tracking; limited response to causality
2	Home	N/A	Consistent fine and gross motor movements; sufficient trunk and neck support	Responds to visual and tactile stimuli; no response to causality
3	ATP	STxBP1 West syndrome	Limited fine motor movements and consistent gross motor movements	Limited response to sensory stimuli; no response to causality; limited communication through sign language
4	ATP	Seizures; infantile spasms	General fine motor movements and limited gross motor movements; no trunk and neck support	Limited response to sensory stimuli; limited response to causality
5	Home	Ohtahara syndrome with controlled seizures; cortical visual impairment	Limited fine and gross motor movements; no trunk support or balance	Responds to sensory stimuli; limited visual tracking; responds to causality
6	School	Petit mal seizures (well-controlled)	Limited fine motor movements and consistent gross motor movements; trunk and neck support present	Responds to sensory stimuli; good vision; no response to causality
7	School	Spinal muscular atrophy type 2	Consistent fine motor movements and limited gross motor movements; no trunk and neck support	Responds to sensory stimuli; limited speech; good vision; follows one- and two-step directional cues
8	School	Cerebral palsy; seizures	Consistent gross motor movements and limited fine motor movements; no trunk support and limited head support	Responds to sensory stimuli; good vision; no response to causality; limited following of one-step directions
